ESPNcricinfo lists the match as the sixth fixture of the tournament and a Group 1 game in Birmingham. The Guardian match report also identified the fixture as India against Pakistan in the Women's T20 World Cup and reported the 64-run margin.
India's innings turned on Mandhana's 68 and later runs from Harmanpreet and Ghosh. The Guardian live coverage recorded Harmanpreet saying India had been under pressure in the powerplay before her partnership with Mandhana put the side back in control.
Deepti was the decisive bowler. ESPNcricinfo's scorecard gives her figures as 5 for 10, and the Guardian live coverage recorded her as player of the match. The live report quoted Deepti saying the pitch was turning and that varying her pace was important; she also credited Mandhana's innings and the partnership with Harmanpreet.
Pakistan's chase began with a stronger powerplay than the final margin suggests, but wickets changed the match. The Guardian live coverage reported Muneeba Ali making 41 before Pakistan were bowled out for 106. It also recorded Deepti taking three wickets in the 17th over, at 16.2, 16.4 and 16.6, which ended Pakistan's remaining chance of rebuilding the chase.
